I was thinking the same thing - it'd be nice if they could just keep doing what they're doing now since it's great, but who knows, maybe this will lead to some other great films that otherwise never would have been made. If they can maintain their quality in the big budget space, there's a relatively unfilled niche for popcorn flicks made with care and artistry.
Off the top of my head, Mad Max: Fury Road fits the description of 'big budget, action, based on existing IP' and I don't think anyone would wish that hadn't been made.
Maybe they will start producing garbage; it's entirely possible. I'd rather have a little optimism and wait to hate until it actually happens though. It'd be awesome to see what passionate and talented filmmakers like the Daniels would do with both a big budget and the creative freedom A24 has historically offered.
